§ 13.16.040. Notice—Service and publication.

The engineer shall cause the notice required in Section 13.16.030 to be published not less than once in a newspaper of general circulation in the city and the publication shall be completed not less than 15 days prior to the time set for the hearing of protests. The notice shall also be posted by the engineer in a conspicuous place upon each parcel of real property proposed to be connected. The engineer shall mail such notices by postcard to all persons owning real property proposed to be connected, whose names and addresses appear on the last equalized assessment roll for city taxes prior thereto. The posting and mailing of notices shall be completed before the expiration of the time for publication herein required. Personal service of the notice upon the owner or occupant of any property affected shall dispense with the necessity of posting such property. Service of the notice required by Section 13.16.030 shall also be made upon the person, firm or corporation maintaining a gas main or a telephone main in a street or portion thereof intended to be improved. The notice shall be served by delivering a copy of the same to the manager or any clerk employed in the office of said person, firm or corporation.
